No originality in these LFDW clothes. Clothes look the same from one designer to the next. It is as if they are copying from the same sources. As a result too, so many clothes made are not for our warm weather but for cooler temperatures. The designers are copying off the fall runways and we forget that it is hot as heck in Nigeria. How comfortable will it be to wear them? I can understand if this was a few pieces but such a high percentage of each collection. Is it meant straight from air conditioned car to airconditioned building?

The westerners will tune into our fashion to see new ideas and creations and what do we give them? The replica version of what has already been shown on the New York, Milan and Paris runways. I am yet to have any collection impress me. I also see that most designers left our prints alone, in favour of these chiffon, lace like fabrics. Let’s be original. Serious originality needed. Too many fake designers. People with financial resources at their exposure and think they know a bit about fashion so they call themselves designers.
